- pattern minor 112d agoKibana slow performance optimizationI have a Kibana page which takes about 7-10 seconds to load. Benchmarking same page shows ~1s to complete the request ``` $ ab -n 10 "http://kibana/app/discover#/view/15a67850-6921-11ea-8308-058e42e28132" ``` and the exact same query to elastic takes about 1s to complete as well. ``` $ ab -n 20 -p same-query.json -T application/json "http://kibana:9200/logstash*/_search" ``` It's just 2 simple `match` filters within a request to `logstash*` index. Taking into account benchmarking above I don't think the the issue related to Elasticsearch/Logstash but rather to Kibana itself. So my questions are: - Is the a way to tune/optimize performance for Kibana (page loading time)? - In case I move Kibana UI to separate instance will that give any benefits to performance? (currently it's ELK stack on the one instance 8 vcpus, 16 GiB memory) - How can I additionally narrow down the exact reason of this slow performance?
